"I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defense the only arms I allow myself to use -- silence, exile, and cunning." -- James Joyce

It's Not the 1600s Anymore!

We had just seen Bob Weir and Ratdog, and my friend, on arriving back at his bar (he owns it) he shouted out "Bob Weir rules!"

A friend of ours was smoking on the sidewalk and responded, "Oh, please, it's not the 1960s anymore."

Just so. When someone tells me they have just watched Hamlet, I always respond, "Good God, it's not the 1600s, you know!"
